Just my opinion, but is the marching band programs in Texas, is their primary goal to compete, or to provide entertainment at half time. No high school in Texas is providing a 25 million budget for their music programs like many of the stadiums that are being built so that a bunch of 18 year olds pituiraries (sic) can entertain Daddy. If I was 18 again, and I'm not, I'm 66, I would refuse to do half time shows just on principal. I think I'm going to take some flak but it is my opinion. Hehehehe so flame away.
